Because I simply love you - Chapter 450

Nana covered her mouth with her hands as she recognized the woman she could have even with her eyes closed.

Yukito and Yukira slightly stiffened and lowered their heads.

From the wheelchair, Yu Ichika slowly raised her head. Her glassy gaze fell upon Nana, and for a few moments, there was absolute silence.

“M-mom…” Nana gasped in shock.

Yu Ichika trembled in her place. Her lips raised into a sad smile. “You…are still calling me that?”

Tears pooled in Nana’s eyes, and she looked at Jinhai in disbelief. “Y-you brought her here?”

Jinhai smiled. “Because I know she is important to you, and so she is important to me. I know that without her, you would have always felt incomplete today. You would always felt that someone was missing. So, I brought her here.”

She trembled, and tears finally gushed out as if a dam broke. She rushed towards Yu Ichika and bent on her knees.

“Y-you came…you are really here…I-I was just thinking about you and…”

Yu Ichika stared at Nana in a trance until she couldn’t hold back her tears too. “Are you stupid? W-why would you wait for a woman like me…? I have hurt you so much…I am not even worthy of being here…It’s even too late to apologize.”

Nana bit her lip hard and sobbed. “No, Mom-”

“It’s never too late to apologize.”

Liang Xiao Dan spoke.

Apart from Nana, everybody else knew that Yu Ichika was going to come too. Jinhai already informed them, especially the Liang and Huo family, because both could be uncomfortable learning at the last moment of her presence.

He didn’t want any scene on their wedding day, so he wanted to know their opinion. Liang Xiao Dan and Liang Zou might be furious at how Yu Ichika abandoned Nana, and Huo Xiao Fan could be uncomfortable because she was Yu Tengfei’s wife.

The Liang family thought for a long time before they agreed.

Liang Xiao Dan had said to Jinhai when he came to meet them. “If Yu Ichika is truly sorry for her mistakes, then I won’t mind. After all, she did give Nana the mother’s love during that time. For a short time, Nana did have a family, and we are grateful to her for that. But I am just concerned about Nana.”

Liang Zou agreed. “We don’t want Nana to recall what happened in the past.”

Jinhai shook his head. “I know she wouldn’t. She would be so happy to see Yu Ichika that she won’t even remember that incident. I can already imagine Nana’s reaction.”

“Alright…we don’t mind. No matter what happened, Yu Ichika is a mother too. I think she would also love to see her daughter’s wedding.”

After that, when Jinhai met Huo Shen and Huo Xiao Fan, she didn’t show any resistance either

“I may have had enmity with her once, but I now know that she was also just an unfortunate victim of Tengfei’s betrayal. She was always his wife, but I wrongly blamed her for that. I made her life difficult in the hospital, and now…if she can live a peaceful life from now on, then my heart can finally be at ease.”

Jinhai slowly asked, “You really wouldn’t mind?”

Huo Xiao Fan smiled. “I have moved on from Yu Tengfei. He doesn’t hold any place in my life. Only Shen, Liwei, and Zhilan are important to me now.”

That made Huo Shen’s heart flutter in joy as he heard it.

“And Serena?”

“You can talk to her, too, if you want, but I can vouch for her. She had always treated Shen as her father. Nothing related to Yu Tengfei affects her. I don’t think she would mind Yu Ichika’s presence either.”

So at present, everybody was aware that Jinhai was going to bring Yu Ichika, even Yukito and Yukira. Naturally, Jinhai had talked to them too. They were a little uncomfortable because it felt that they lost connection with her. She was almost like a stranger to them. They hadn’t talked to her in years.

If Nana was happy with her, then they didn’t mind because their sister’s happiness was the most important to them. It was just that they didn’t know how to talk to her again or face her after all these years.

Liang Xiao Dan said, “It’s not too late to apologize.”

Yu Ichika slowly raised her head to look at the woman who spoke. She was dumbstruck and amazed to see the resemblance between her and Nana.

“You are her mother…her real mother…” She was in a daze for a long time. Jinhai had already said to her how Nana met her real family. She felt a little embarrassed to face them now.

Obviously, they knew what happened and how Yu Ichika disowned Nana.

Liang Xiao Dan nodded. “Yes, I am. If you want to say anything to Nana, then you can still say it now. It’s not late.”

Yu Ichika looked back at Nana, who was tightly holding her hand.

“Nana…” her voice choked as tears trickled down her cheeks. “Nana dear… will you forgive me?”

Nana burst into tears and hugged her hard. “Mom. I have already forgotten the past. I don’t want to dwell on it anymore. I just want everyone together happy now. And with you, everything is complete now.”

Yu Ichika lowered her head, and tears fell on her lap.

She didn’t change…my daughter didn’t change at all.

“You are still the same…I was so foolish in the past…” Her shoulders trembled, and the mother-daughter pair cried for a long time as they reunited.

Liang Xiao Dan smiled, and her eyes couldn’t help but water too.

She wiped Nana’s tears and looked at her from head to toe. She smiled as her eyes shone in brilliance. “You have become even more pretty. My daughter is so beautiful now.”

Nana chuckled.

Then Yu Ichika’s gaze fell upon the twins that Liu Chunhua and Grandma Liu held in their arms.

She gasped in surprise. “T-they are your sons, right? M-my grandchildren?”

Nana furiously nodded. “En. The elder one is Jian, and the younger one is Nian.”

“Can I-”

“Of course, you can hold them.” Nana already understood what she was going to ask.

As soon as Nana placed the twins on her lap, Yu Ichika felt as if her heart bloomed in joy. Every single negative feeling just washed away the moment she gazed into their black orbs.

“Baaaaaaa…”

“Abooooooo…”

Jian and Nian caught her sleeve in their tiny hands and smiled at her with the brightest smile they could give.

Yu Ichika’s heart melted at the sight of their adorable faces. But then her heart was filled with guilt when she remembered how she had admonished Nana when she came to say that she was pregnant. She had insulted and humiliated her so much in the hospital, and she had cursed her unborn child as well.

And now she was feeling horrible for her behavior. Jian and Nian were the sweetest angels ever.

“I…I am sorry for that day…in the hospital…” she sobbed. “I am so sorry…”

Nana was so excited to share the news with her and she had pushed her away.

Nana smiled. “What day? What are you talking about? I don’t remember.”

Yu Ichika furrowed her brows, but then she realized that Nana was feigning to forget on purpose.

“You…”

Nana said, “Nothing matters now. Just give Jian and Nian your blessings and lots of love.”

Yu Ichika nodded emotionally. She swore she would give all her love to them. All these years, she couldn’t see Nana, Yukito, and Yukira grow into adults with her eyes. She couldn’t truly enjoy the joy of her motherhood of bringing up her children. So, she swore that she would definitely see Jian and Nian, her grandchildren growing up, spoil them and shower everything to them that she couldn’t do with her twin sons and Nana.

Yu Ichika patted Nana’s head. “I am so proud of you. You raised Yukito and Yukira all on your own, and now you have such a wonderful husband and a family of your own. You have so many people who care about you. I couldn’t be any happier than this…And I know that you would be a wonderful mother too.”

“E-en…”

Jinhai sighed. “Sorry, mother-in-law, but you are making my dear wife cry too much that I cannot bear it anymore.”

Everybody burst into laughter.

Liu Hai said, “Yes, yes. Enough of these tears now. Today is a happy day, and we should celebrate!”

Yu Ichika chuckled and nodded. “Yes, yes. I think Nana should get ready now.”

Liang Xiao Dan and Liu Chunhua held Nana’s one arm each. “Now the bride and groom have to separate for a while. We have to help get Nana ready, and it’s going to take a long time.”

Jing and Liu Hai came to Jinhai’s side. “And well, so does the groom.”

Jing’s eyes sparkled. “Come on, bro! Your wedding suit is ready! Let’s get started!”
